"Aspire to Inspire Before You Expire" - Dannion Brinkley, "Saved By The Light"

Welcome to our "no dues" group!
Please note the unabashed donations request at right, which may be sent online, at a meeting, or mail to Russ: 3oo Walnut Ln, Spirit Lake, ID 83869. This "hobby" site is a full-time Mission directed by a Higher Power, helping our Inland Northwest neighbors; I've invested thousands over the decades. Your gifts of cash, equipment, farm stuff, materials, computers, radios, solar, greenhouse materials, vehicles, machinery, sheds, etc. for teaching and sharing are deeply appreciated. Right-column ad space is available upon donation!

GREETINGS!
In a regional emergency, your very survival may be dependent upon your degree of self-reliance. “Self-Reliance” goes beyond preparedness; it also entails sustainability. History teaches that long-term sustainability includes interaction with other families, groups, villages, communities and even nations. In a grid-down regional emergency, you must interact with others.
Interaction demands communication, and we promote the use and familiarity of 2-way radios, especially hand-held "ham" units via the Channel 3 Project; see www.HooDooCH3.com. We provide some critical information for you here: http://groupspaces.com/INWPrep/forum/?bview=thread&thread_id=135353#board_post349049
Our active core group started about 12 years ago. This group radically departs from the precepts of other “preparedness groups”; our members actively seek each other out in their hometown environments, developing trust and relationships. By interacting with others within walking or bicycle range, they get to know one another’s assets and needs. In our larger group meetings, we learn and share various skills, many of which have been lost to the average modern man.

BTW, this is a tolerant, Constitutionally-minded Practical Preparedness Group. We have no room for, nor will we tolerate, political or religious bias. This is not a venting platform. Bringing up your prejudices or bias will be a sure way to be asked to leave. We may, individually or as a group, agree with your sentiments, but they have NO place in our Mission Statement. Likewise, overuse / abuse of emails to group members are not welcomed; please use the "Discussions" forum!

If you’d like to be a part of this, we invite you to join and be active in any of our monthly regional meetings, typically listed in our Calendar (scroll down, below). Guests may attend one of our meetings before signing on here, FREE, as a member. Your participation is welcomed!

Blessings -
